Sign Systems Studies Vol 47, No 1/2 (2019): Special issue: Approaches in Tartu Semiotics

We are happy to announce the publication of the new issue of Sign Systems Studies.

The online issue is available here: http://www.sss.ut.ee

The print issue will be shortly available at https://www.tyk.ee/

An international journal of semiotics and sign processes in culture and living nature, the journal Sign Systems Studies was established in 1964 by Juri Lotman (initially as Труды по знаковым системам – Σημειωτικη), and is thus the oldest international semiotic periodical. Originally (until 1992) a Russian-language series, it is now published in English, and has become a central institution in the semiotics of culture.

Starting from 1998, Sign Systems Studies is published as an international peer-reviewed journal on the semiotics of culture and nature. Issued regularly, one volume per year, it is indexed in major scientific databases. Since 2009, each volume includes four issues.
